I have xp installed already. I partitioned my hard drive to give 5GB for a Server 2003 install. I set my computer to boot from the cd drive. I went through the whole Server 2003 set up with the blue screen and white font. It says it needs to reboot to complete setup. So I set the system to boot from the hard drive now. Server 2003 does not show up on the boot menu..only XP. I checked the boot ini file and it wasn't listed there either. I then created an entry for it. When I choose Server 2003 from the boot menu now nothing happens. The screen goes black and just stays that way.

Am I doing something wrong? Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
